EVs will likely account for approximately 8% of new car sales in Europe by 2020, supported by consumers’ higher willingness to pay for green technologies, the region’s high emissions standards, and high gasoline and diesel fuel taxes. BCG sees fewer levers available for diesel-fueled ICEs, which are already optimized.

In addition, although many experts say that the solution to our energy and climate problems is sending the correct price signals to industry and consumers, the transport sector’s behavior is highly inelastic in that it does not change significantly in response to changes in fuel prices, at least in the range that is politically acceptable.

EU climate policy aims to limit the global mean temperature increase from anthropogenic climate change to below 2 °C. They estimated the number of new vehicles required and the adoption of new technologies and fuels based on their availability and cost effectiveness under projected scenario variables such as fuel price.

The report shows that projected global ZEV adoption from 2015 to 2039 (based on the BNEF 2017 forecast) may follow an s-curve, similar to that of smartphone adoption in the US from 2005 to 2015. Choice: 150 different plug-in hybrids and pure electric vehicles are available worldwide, with that number set to rise to over 240 by 2021.

A new study by the French institute Enerdata, commissioned by the European Federation for Transport & Environment (T&E), suggests that the European CO 2 standards for new vehicles due to come into effect in 2012 will lead not only to a European savings on oil (mainly via lower oil import volumes) but also to slightly lower global oil prices.

However, in the past this area has only yielded limited success because efficient shift gains were neutralized by volume growth and second, available policy measures (e.g. The EU should develop a commonly agreed GHG accounting methodology for logistics and, as far as possible, push for global methodologies.

The automaker also plans to make autonomous driving features widely available by 2030. For example, by 2025, 50% of FedEx Express global PUD vehicle purchases will be electric, rising to 100% of all purchases by 2030.
